You can look forward to perks like log fires, hot tubs and stunning scenic settings.

And the sleeping arrangements will also be a lot comfier than the floor of a tent.

So if you’re keen to explore the outdoors – but in some added comfort this year – read on.

There’s a huge variety of glamping options available around the UK, and we’ve rounded up the best.

Cosy Under Canvas, South Wales

 Cosy Under Canvas offers spacious and stylish dome tents

Switch home life for dome life with this update on the classic tent. Domes sleep up to six, so are perfect for a family glamping holiday.

Each dome even comes with hammocks and its own wood-fired hot tub, so you can relax after a day of taking in the countryside.

The dome life takes you back to basics with no electricity on site, so you’ll be provided with lanterns to find your way. You can also expect composting toilets and wood fuelled showers.

There’s a kitchen and dining area for guests to share – just bear in mind there’s no conventional oven, but who cares when you can cook over an open fire.

Stay in a beautifully decorated Shepherd’s hut near the Cornish coast. These cosy cabins are perfect for a couple’s getaway.

Your hut not only comes with its own secluded garden area, there’s also 20 acres of woodland to explore and a fresh water lake for boating and swimming.

Inside your hut you’ll find a double bed, wood burner and kitchen facilities. Outside you’ll have a little seating area, and if you choose your hut wisely, a hot tub.

Plus if somehow you get bored of the campsite, the coastline is just a 30 minute walk away.
